<HTML>To pick one reason, it has to be the acting. These men have to appear in some very extreme situations, each one upping the ante on its predecessor. How they avoid any histrionics whilst still turning in performances in extreme situations is why not only the film is so great but why it still stands up twenty years down the line.
And while we're talking about the omission of Hitler's portrait, why did Petersen feel compelled to have such a violent injury occur during the strafing that led to the bottom off Gibraltar? Did he really need that much extra drama?</HTML>
